    <p>This is a way to get a list of blockgroups, specified by state/county/tract or even block.</p>
<p>This function is not optimized for speed – it is slow for large queries.</p>
<p>Takes a vector of one or more FIPS that could be State (2-digit), County (5-digit),
Tract (11-digit), or blockgroup (12 digit), or even block (15-digit fips).</p>
<p>Returns unique vector of FIPS of all US blockgroups (including DC and Puerto Rico)
that contain any specified blocks, are equal to any specified blockgroup fips,
or are contained within any provided tract/county/state FIPS.</p>
